Only a chewed up spur gear, but not flat-spotted and consistent drivetrain noise! Like I said, I have a feeling I just did not tighten the three motor slide screws tight enough on both occasions causing the pinion to slide away from the spur and slipping over the top of the spur gear teeth.

The first spur that was chewed was the original Tamiya 91T and the last one was the 3Racing blue, delrin 91T. I have one more 3Racing spur left and will be my last... the slipper pads fit in there like shit... the hex on the spur is larger than the pad. Is one more durable than the other?... I dunno.

Hmmm, loctite... I didn't think of it but yeah, why not right? I loctite'd the front and rear bulkheads to the chassis, so why not these! Thanks pugs.
